<p><strong>The Literary Commune</strong> is a bimonthly UK-produced litzine featuring short stories, poems and short articles. Our main genres are urban, transgressive or edgy fiction, social commentary, and thought-provoking poetry. Generally, our issues are about 40 pages long and we print old-school, on paper. Our distribution is between 100-150 copies per issue, but we're hoping to increase our readership. TLC goes out across the UK and Ireland, and for our subscribers living in the UK and Ireland, it's free - we even pay the postage to get the magazine out to them. Yes, we are <em>that</em> altruistic. At the moment, we don't pay writers for their submissions, but you do get the satisfaction of knowing that 150 strangers are reading your work.</p>
<p>As we are, essentially,a commune of writers, once you appear in the litzine, we want you to spread the word to friends, colleagues and complete strangers. And all contributors can have a say in how the litzine progresses.</p>
<p>We're currently looking for submissions for our next issue, Issue Four, out on 1st April 2015. Ideally, we'd like submissions by 23rd March 2015. Our rules for the lengths of submission are up to 2,500 for short stories, 500 words for poems and 1,500 words for articles. However, rules are meant to be broken, so feel free to try to break ours if you have something outstanding for us.</p>
<p>You can email submissions to us at theliterarycommune@yahoo.co.uk, or you can visit our Facebook page at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/theliterarycommune" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/theliterarycommune</a>, "like" us, and then submit there. Our Facebook page has up-to-date information about TLC, and there are some interviews with contributors on there also. We encourage all of our readers and contributors to become actively involved in the production and distribution of the litzine. You can also check out our blog at <a href="http://theliterarycommune.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">http://theliterarycommune.blogspot.co.uk/</a>.</p>
<p>We look forward to hearing from you.</p>

<p>Howdy all. I'm new here. My name is John and I run a blog/podcast called <em>Lo-Fi Meltdown</em>. It's all about hometapers/bedroom musicians/ etc.</p>

<p>Howdy all. I'm new here. My name is John and I run a blog/podcast called <em>Lo-Fi Meltdown</em>. It's all about hometapers/bedroom musicians/ etc.</p>
<p><em>LFMD</em> has been knocking around the idea of putting out a fanzine/magazine in conjunction with the podcast for a while now. Something not too glossy, but not too low-budget either. Probably about 20-40 pages, published every 4 months (although I'd be happy with 2x/ year).</p>
<p>The main focus would be home-recorded music, but I would like a bit of everything, especially if it fits with the “DIY” aesthetic. Got a great way to make your own laundry detergent? Send it in!</p>
<p>Of course, we need content. Believe me, you don't want me to write it all myself. It would be endless articles about my cats and the occasional tofu recipe. I'm pretty open to anything, but I would prefer the following:</p>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li>Album reviews (new stuff and older stuff you think people should listen to)</li>
<li>Live show reviews</li>
<li>Home-recording articles (equipment, techniques, etc)</li>
<li>Movie reviews (underground, indie)</li>
<li>Poetry</li>
<li>Artwork</li>
<li>Articles on “strange” topics (UFOs, bigfoot, conspiracies, etc)</li>
<li>Short stories (2500-7500 words please)</li>
<li>One-panel cartoons (think “Far Side”)</li>
</ul>
<p><br/> I'm NOT looking for political/religious/social issue content, but if you're "out-there"....and I mean <em>really</em> out-there, I may consider it. I do like animal rights/veganism stuff, so that would be cool.</p>
<p>NOTE: You will not be paid, but you will get a credit and a plug for your website/blog (and the thrill of seeing your work in print! Oh joy!!)</p>
<p>The magazine will be manufactured/distributed through a Print-On-Demand (maybe Lulu, but if you have someone better, let me know) and there will be a cover price, but it will be minimal. Just to cover the M&amp;D costs. I may do a small run in the future. We'll see.</p>
